Thank you!

Bill Create a point in the center of your pocket. Chain the point first using the point chaining option then chain your pocket. When you choose helix as your entry motion type there is an option to center on entry point. Check that box and you should be good to go.

You may get more help if you share a file. It will be easier for everyone to understand what you are trying to accomplish.

I actually found the silver bullet here.... I had a file last week which would crash Mastercam . This was caused by a copy / paste gone wrong and two solids with build history and their corresponding wireframe all missing ( the wireframe geometry not the "empty shell" history ) Turns out, Verisurf has a function called "Merge CAD Files" . I have ignored this function until now as I thought it was a new take on an old thing...It was able to bring the file on screen alive and kicking. All this concerns Mastercam 2019 . Gracjan

That's why we are using Mcam 2019 . Actually I remember X8 very warmly ..... You can write a 7000 word essay .... or send a file with a drafting note pinpointing your place of pain with one word "How ?" . .... The ball is in your court. Gracjan
